The New York Giants are coming off one of their worst losses in team history, here are the keys to defeating the Atlanta Falcons in week 2.

Eli Manning withstood a firestorm after week one for his time management and game IQ. The good news for the New York Giants is this team will use this as a rallying cry and win their home opener in week two.

It is time for Tom Coughlin to hold up the New York Post front cover, showing Eli Manning in a dunce cap, and let his team know it is time to shut everyone outside of their locker room up.

The Atlanta Falcons come to town after doing the Giants a favor and taking out the Philadelphia Eagles in week one. Dan Quinn won his head coaching debut and will look to build off it when he comes home to face the G-Men in MetLife Stadium.

The Giants are not in must-win mode just yet, but after giving away game one they must treat this game with a sense of urgency to get rid of the taste week one left in their mouths. The Falcons are looking to rebound from a dreadful 2014 and a 2-0 start would send them on their way.

Two teams enter MetLife Stadum this weekend, one to prove week one was no fluke and the other to prove week one was just a bump in the road.

Here is how the Giants will take down the Falcons this weekend and even their record at 1-1.
